One promotion standard is to present your ideas to an authentic or real audience. This real audience will include community leaders and people outside the classroom.

We plan on playing the videos during mentor bell and each class will have an opportunity to vote for the best video. We will premier these videos to the community, family members and to community leaders. We will also work on posting these on the internet so that you work will be “published” for people to view outside of the classroom.

Storyboard Child Soldiers- Due this Wednesday, February 1st Completed Assignment due Next Wednesday, February 8th. Presentations on Friday, February 10th.
